how to answer summon

[LEFT][COLOR=#000000]It really doesnt matter who is suing you, the procedure will be the same.

Your summons package will include a document entitled "Complaint." This is the list of allegations against you being made by the plaintiff, or creditor. You must answer each individual allegation with "agree," "disagree" or "partially agree," or similar words such as "affirm," "deny" or "lack of knowledge to fully answer." If you are denying or disagreeing with an allegation, write a brief statement explaining why. There may be a form included in your packet on which you can respond, or you can type your answers out on a blank piece of paper. Imitate the same format as the complaint, including a caption at the top consisting of your name, address and telephone number, the title of the case and docket number. Include your signature at the end.

Make sure you send a copy to the courts and to the plantiff. Check with your local court for civil procedure.
